Captain Magenta - Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet'

Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet'

The Captain Magenta in 2005 CGI remake series, Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet, is not the same character as the original Magenta. He is rarely seen in the series and very little background information has been supplied about the character. His name is Mario Moro, and his personality differs greatly from that of Patrick Donaghue. This Magenta is cast as something of a womaniser; however, he has little real success with women – including the female Captain Ochre. In another ironic twist, the new Magenta has been given an Italian nationality, but it is unknown if, like the original Patrick Donaghue, he has been also given an "underworld" background, however stereotyped this would appear.

Famous quotes containing the words anderson and/or captain:

    ...I didn’t consider intellectuals intelligent, I never liked them or their thoughts about life. I defined them as people who care nothing for argument, who are interested only in information; or as people who have a preference for learning things rather than experiencing them. They have opinions but no point of view.... Their talk is the gloomiest type of human discourse I know.... This is a red flag to my nature. Intellectuals, to me have no natures ...
    —Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)

    But that his wife should be one of the performers, that she should be gazed at by a crowd as she tripped about, and that, after all that had been said, she should be tripping in the arms of Captain De Baron, was almost more than he could endure.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
